After the past weekend's huge swell and crazy seas, we encourage you to have a look at this for a bit of perspective. You always wonder what it must feel like to be out there and actually try ride giant, gnarly waves like we see when these big swells come through, but try imagine what it must feel like to wipe out in a wave that dwarfs what we ever see here on the North Coast ....as the commentator James Williams explains "I've had friends who have had their whole arm detached" ....respect. You have to see this to appreciate it.

about us

At Tidal Tao, we are dilly, silly and plain old passionate about the ocean and our neighborhood of Salt Rock, near Ballito, on the North Coast of KwaZulu-Natal. This is possibly some of the best snorkelling expediences South Africa has to offer, year round warm water, incredible fish and marine life, all in shallow, safe, protected areas.....and we want you to experience it too. "In the end we will conserve only what we love, we will love only what we understand, and we will understand only what we are taught."
